When I SSH to a certain Linux host, although my default shell is tcsh, the .cshrc file under my home directory is not sourced at all. I can't understand why this happens because from my understanding, if I'm using the tcsh, the .cshrc should be sourced anyway!

Any ideas?

The man page for tcsh says that if ~/.tcshrc is not present then ~/.cshrc is processed, so it may be that there is a ~/.tcshrc.
